318. Send troops to Runan

It was indeed three days later that Liu Bei learned about the incident in Jingzhou. After hearing the news, Liu Bei immediately summoned his advisers to discuss it, and even Han Fei was called over.

At this time, Han Fei's injuries had healed, and he was in a panic at home, so he was the first to come when he heard Liu Bei's call. After him, Jia Xu, Tian Feng, Gu Yong and Jian Yong, Zhuge Jin and Guo Tu also arrived at the provincial governor's mansion.

Regarding Guo Tu and Han Fei for a long time, he hadn't seen him, and he was supposed to be arranged in the shadows under Jia Xu. In addition, he has been very low-key since surrendering to Liu Bei, so Han Fei didn't know about him recently.

After looking at him deeply, Han Fei sat in his seat in a daze, not knowing what he thought about. After all, Liu Bei asked Guo Tu to tell Shadow's message. At this time, Han Fei understood that it turned out that Guo Tu had been in charge of Shadow Jingzhou affairs.

After Guo Tu finished speaking, he bowed to Liu Bei, then retreated to his seat and stopped talking. Liu Bei didn't care. He looked at the people below and said, "What do you think? Do we want to send troops to attack Cao Cao, and how should we march if we want to send troops?"

Among these people, Zhuge Jin is considered a newcomer, and he is Zhuge Liang's brother, so Liu Bei allowed him to come. He himself knew his position, so he made up his mind and just listened and said nothing.

After Liu Bei finished speaking, he looked at everyone. At this time, Tian Feng said, "The lord is approaching spring plowing at this time. If he uses troops, will it delay the farming season?"

After hearing this, Liu Bei frowned and thoughtful, and nodded without comment. At this time, Jian Yong said, "Let's not talk about the farming season, it mainly depends on how far the lord wants to fight with Cao Cao. Should he decide the winner in one battle, or just beat him up?"

Liu Bei nodded again and did not say anything, but looked at Jia Xu. Seeing Liu Bei's gaze, Jia Xu immediately smiled bitterly: "Lord, Zicong is full of confidence and thinks he has a draft, why don't you ask him?"

Han Fei smiled angrily and said, "You, Jia Wenhe, are the people in this room? You, Jia Wenhe, know how to hide your shortcomings? If you have the right to listen to both sides, you will be clear and partial, and you will be secret. Do you want to turn your lord's subordinates into a one-man show?"

Han Fei was always joking, but he was also talking to Liu Bei. He just saw Liu Bei's expression and did not fully understand Han Fei's meaning. But this was nothing. After a long time of going back and forth, Han Fei had the confidence to influence Liu Bei subtly, prompting him to open up his own way of speaking.

Jia Xu laughed awkwardly after hearing Han Fei's words: "Lord, in my opinion, you should fight Cao Cao in the last battle. Jingzhou must not be allowed to go easily! There are two reasons. First, Cao Cao's army is mostly soldiers from the north, and there is no navy at all, let alone navy generals. If he takes Jingzhou, he will not only give him a navy, but also give him a navy general, which will threaten the cities of Yan'an, Yangtze River. Second, Jingzhou has outstanding people and powerful land. If Cao Cao has to manage it for a little, he will benefit a lot. At that time, his military and financial resources will probably be above our army!"

After Jia Xu finished speaking, Liu Bei nodded and said, "According to Wenhe's words, where should our army fight with Cao Cao to stop him from obtaining the Jingzhou land?"

"This... I dare not speak nonsense. Lord Zicong, right?" Jia Xu kicked the ball to Han Fei again. Liu Bei then looked at Han Fei, but Han Fei smiled and said, "Senior brother, what's the point? There is also Ziyu, you can talk about it later."

After being named by Han Fei, Gu Yong smiled and said, "All Zicong pointed me, then I'll say a few words. Lord, everyone, the navy of Jingzhou is more than one step away from the navy of the Sun family. Huang Zu may still have the power to fight again. Now Huang Zu was killed, and only Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were left. They would not be the ones who were guarding him. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much about this navy. Jingzhou is the place of four battles, including Cao Cao in the north, Sun Quan in the south, and Liu Zhang in the west. However, although Cao Cao's territory in the east, there is no intention of advancing. Therefore, I think that even if Cao Cao gets Jingzhou, it is not a completely bad thing!"

After Gu Yong finished speaking, Liu Bei also frowned and thought about his words. At this time, Han Fei spoke again: "Tiyu deserves you."

When Zhuge Jin heard this, his face changed. However, he still said with a stern voice: "My lord, my subordinates are still very experienced and shouldn't have spoken nonsense. But since the military advisor named him, I'll try to say a few words."

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Tiyu just said it's okay."

With Liu Bei's encouragement, Zhuge Jin let go, and he said, "Lord, in my opinion, if we can compete for three families today, we are one of them, and then Cao Cao and Sun Quan. However, Sun Quan is located in Jiangdong itself far from the Central Plains, so it is inherently weak, so if nothing unexpected happens, Cao Cao will be our biggest enemy. In fact, this is true. Cao Cao is a man who knows people and uses them well, and has many virtuous ministers and generals under his command. After gathering Yuan Shao's old subordinates, his military strength has reached the point where our army is equal. Therefore, if he can lose his strength in one battle, it would be better."

Liu Bei nodded after hearing this and said, "I understand what Ziyu means. He is going to fight! Okay, everyone has finished talking, Zicong, you can talk too!"

Han Fei nodded and said, "Lord, everyone! I was planning the Jingzhou incident as early as the Battle of Wancheng, and now it has reached the end. I will explain it in detail with my lord and you all."

As soon as Han Fei spoke, Liu Bei and the rest of them were all shocked. Everyone couldn't help but shouted in their hearts: "So amazing!" That's right, when everyone was discussing whether to take action, Han Fei was about to finish it! Liu Bei couldn't help but sighed in his heart: "Fortunately, Han Fei is my command, otherwise I would be in a bad mood in the dormitory." Ignore everyone's thoughts.

Han Fei stood up directly to the wall, and there was an animation picture here. This map was drawn by the shadows under Liu Bei and various caravans. Its degree of precision was completely incomparable to later generations. But it was already the most advanced in this period. Han Fei walked to the map and pointed and said, "Lord, please see, this is Runan, Yuzhou! If our army conquered this place, we can enclose the land of Shouchun in Yangzhou, and then go west to reach the junction of Nanyang County and Jingzhou. Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi was told to lead troops to defend Cao Cao here. At that time, the combined forces of our army and Liu Qi's army will inevitably damage Cao's army. Even if Cao's army wins in the end, they can move the people of Jingzhou to the territory of Runan and Yangzhou."

Han Fei paused, and then said, "Now the Runan garrison is Liu Pi and Gong Du, who are from Yellow Turbans. Their abilities are also very average, so our army can capture this place as long as a general is sent to a surprise attack. Shouchun prefect Che Zhou is a pragmatic person, so after attacking Runan, he can surround Shouchun without attacking. After collecting other land in Yangzhou, he can slowly draw it."

After Han Fei finished speaking, he looked at the stunned people and then smiled and said, "I haven't finished talking yet. Do you have any more exciting things in the future? You can do it without that reward."
